Chapter 9: The Storm (2)
"Master of the Long Family...... He's dead. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Liu Changnan said the truth that had been hidden for a long time with a sad expression, Xu Shu closed his eyes and was silent, his expression was painful, and it could be seen that his mood was extremely heavy.
The simple six words were like a sunny day tiredness, falling heavily on the top of the dragon clan's head.
Bai Fan and the others looked at Liu Changnan and Xu Shu with pale faces, for a long time, motionless, silent.
The north wind in the early morning was warmed by the sun, and it was not very cold to blow on their bodies, but each of them seemed to return to the cold wasteland of last night, and the wind hit their bodies like ice.
I don't know how long it took, but the dead silence of the wasteland finally couldn't suppress something that was about to erupt.
Bai Fan suddenly pounced on Liu Changnan, grabbed the other party's shirt tightly, gritted his teeth and shouted: "This is not true!, right? You are joking, how could the head of the family die? You are fucking joking with us, right?"
"Anan ......" Xiaoxue was frightened, and she was afraid of such a Bai Fan for the first time.
Seeing Bai Fan, who could almost be called angry to the point of losing his mind, the others didn't do anything to stop him.
In the face of the violent Bai Fan, Liu Changnan was indifferent, and let him pull his clothes like a sack and ask and reprimand him angrily.
"What the hell is wrong with the head of the family?" Bai Fan's expression was hideous, his eyes were red and he stared at Liu Changnan, the affinity of the past who was free and easy to laugh disappeared without a trace at this moment, and there was an angry aura on his body, forcing people to be afraid.
Something hot and fierce rose up in the air, burning the lonely earth that had been settled all night.
Liu Changnan did not resist, and his hair was scattered due to Bai Fan's vigorous pulling, covering the upper half of his face, making it impossible to see his expression at the moment. "He was poisoned and didn't live long. In a tense atmosphere, he was calm and spoke clearly.
Bai Fan gritted his teeth and looked at him, and after a while, he let go of his hand and muttered dejectedly: "How could it be? How could the head of the family die? How could it be poisoned?"
Liu Changnan stood still and did not speak, very deep.
This bad news was an unacceptable disaster for the Long Clan.
"Head of the family......" Miao Nu finally couldn't control her painful emotions, tears slid down her cheeks, and her whole body strength seemed to be peeled clean with Liu Changnan's words, she fell to the ground weakly, covered her mouth, and cried sadly.
Le Yi's situation was even worse, his eyes were blank, he stood dumbfounded, his body was stiff as a stone, his expression was frozen in shock, the news of Long Tian's death hit him too hard, his mind was blank, he couldn't accept the truth subconsciously, and he didn't wake up for a long, long time.
"Minyu, don't cry, don't cry......" Xiaoxue clenched her hands on her chest, hesitantly looking at Minyu who had lost her soul. She wanted to come forward to comfort them, but she couldn't find a good reason, so she could only stand aside and grieve with them.
Bai Fan was like a monkey with cramps and bones, and said in a low voice: "Who killed the head of the family?"
“....... Xingyue Home. Liu Changnan was silent for a long time before saying these three words.
"Xingyue Family......" Bai Fan used all his strength to read these three words. Miao Nu bowed her head and was silent, her slender body trembled slightly, and whimpering sounded through her fingers; Le Yi was still in deep shock, his expression was dull, like a lifeless sculpture; Xiao Zhu stood against the light, the golden sunlight shot from behind him, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but the scene on the back of his hand holding the hilt of the sword jumped violently; except for the unconscious Long Ying and the overwhelmed Xiaoxue, everyone was sad. Xu Shu had been silent, and at this time, he seemed to look at Liu Changnan with a deep meaning.
After another silence, Xu Shu asked Liu Changnan: "Brother Liu, how did you know that Huangli's poison is related to the Xingyue family?"
"Huang Li?" everyone was shocked when they heard this.
"I don't know what Huang Li has to do with the Xingyue family, but I recognize that the person who rescued him is from the Xingyue family. Liu Changnan sighed lightly, and took a moment to tell them the cause and effect, and he didn't plan to keep a tight mouth about what he discovered.
After hearing this, the hatred of the Long clan towards the Southern Chu royal family and the Xingyue family in their hearts went to a higher level.
"Liu Gongzi, how did you find out that young man is from the Xingyue family?" Miao Nu raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and asked in a low voice.
Liu Changnan seemed to have expected that someone would ask him about this matter, and said unhurriedly: "I noticed that the man's internal strength is very deep, and he took Xu Daxia's sword with one move, and more importantly, I found that there was another purple totem on his sword, which was engraved with the pattern of the sun and the moon. I have read an ancient book before, which mentions the establishment of the Xingyue family, which seems to be related to the sun, moon and stars. There are too many sects and organizations in the world, and the Xingyue family has a history of hundreds of years, and it is the state religion of Southern Chu, and it has always served as a national teacher, so their iconic mark should be unique. I really can't think of any other family in the world that would use the sun and moon as a picture to imprint on a weapon, after all, it represents an identity. ”
In ancient times, class rule was very strict, the aristocracy and the commoners drew a clear line, and there were many class systems in the upper and lower nine classes. In this era, identity is also a symbol of power and power.
Liu Changnan has been in this era for almost five years, and he has already had a deep understanding of feudal **** rule.
"Is the poison in the head of the family poisonous to the touch, and the whole body is purple?" Miao Nu calmed down and suddenly asked a question.
Liu Changnan and Xu Shu glanced at each other and looked at her.
"Yes, how do you know?" Liu Changnan suddenly felt that there was something in this.
"Four years ago, our previous generation of family head Long Qian died of this poison. This poison, its name is Red Feather Chino. Bai Fan's face was as heavy as water, cold as frost, and his hands were clenched.
"Red Feather Chino, the name is quite nice. Xiaoxue blurted out.
Liu Changnan glared at her, she covered her mouth immediately, knowing that she had said the wrong thing by mistake. When people are in great sorrow, how excessive it is to praise the enemy's poisonous name in person, she seems to retract her words.
Bai Fan ignored her cold joke at this time, and continued: "Red Feather Qianye is the most proud poison of the Xingyue family, colorless and tasteless, nowhere to follow, killing people invisibly, and the poisoned person will definitely die within a day." And it is said that there is no cure for this poison. ”
"Poison without an antidote...... Liu Changnan suddenly woke up, no wonder Long Tian didn't let them take him away, it turned out that he had long known that he was incurable and that his death was approaching, he knew how powerful the poison of Red Feather Qianye was, so he faced death so calmly.
"It's strange...... Xiao Xue tilted her head and frowned: "Didn't Long Qian die under Mei Yue......'s sword? Why did you get caught by Red Feather Chino?"
It is very inappropriate to take the liberty of raising such a sensitive issue now, especially when people have just lost their head of family, and their new injuries are not healed, and they come to expose old scars. She did go too far, and it was very irrational, but she just couldn't help but have a bunch of questions in her heart, not intentionally adding another heartache when others were sad, she was just curious, she was really curious about what the grievances and entanglements between the Long Clan and Yunwu were all about. "Please forgive my offense. She said to herself.
Miao Nu's eyes were red, she looked at Bai Fan, the other party was looking at herself silently, she said to Xiao Xue with some understanding: "Brother Long Qian's body was already poisoned by the red feather Qianye when he fought with Mei Yue, because of the poison attack, he missed at the last moment, and was pierced by Mei Yue's sword, and left us like this. ”
"......" Xiaoxue opened her mouth wide in surprise, and opened her mouth silently.
"He stayed to fight Mei Yue to save us, just to delay time so that we could escape. ”
"I'm sorry, I'm just, just curious, don't be upset. Xiaoxue regretted the question she asked, look at what stupid things she did!
Miao Nu shook her head, "It's okay, it's all in the past, but we still can't let it go." ”
These words made everyone silent for a while, and their hearts were heavy.
Four years ago, there was such a secret in the extermination of the Long family, the world only knew that the previous generation of Long Qian, the head of the Long family, was defeated by the hands of the clouds and mist, and died in the sword of Meiyue, who would have thought that there was a involvement of the Xingyue family in the middle. Even if Long Qian hadn't died under Mei Yue's sword, he would have died because Red Feather Chino had no cure, and either way, the result would be death. It's just that he was finally killed by Mei Yue's sword through the heart, although he knew the reason, he was poisoned and died not long after, but in the end, he died under that sword, even if Bai Fan and they understood the cause and effect, they would still hate Mei Yue more or less, hate Yunwu, but hate the Nanchu royal family and the Xingyue family even more.
"Ladies and gentlemen. Xu Daxia, who hadn't spoken for a long time, finally decided to announce a big event. "The head of the Long family was entrusted with the next thing before his death. ”
Everyone looked up at Xu Daxia, only to hear him say next: "Long Minyu, will inherit the sword of the Long family passed down from generation to generation - Long Yuan, from now on, take over the head of the Long family, take the sword as a training, remember the honor and disgrace of the family, and swear to protect the family, are you willing?"
He had already come to Minyu, took out the ancient sword entrusted by someone, put it in front of the child, and solemnly announced the last wish of the deceased.
The morning sun shone down the whole wasteland, and the remnants of the wilderness paved the background behind them, and in the sunlight the weak child sat on his knees, in front of him was the uncle who gave him the sword, and behind him were the people who struggled between pain and hope, between darkness and light.
At this moment, his fate will change dramatically, with the changing world in the near future, together with the greatest turmoil, his fate will be closely linked to the world.
